To be serious. Mencia sucks ass, but as others have said Louis ck (got my tixs for when he comes). Chris rock, seinfeld, Aziz ansarie (sp) last one was pretty funny also.
Joe Rogan is great- Although I view him more as a motivational speaker as his words are really powerful and thought provoking.
It's what sets his stand up apart from everyone elses.. Both him and Patrice O'Neal had an uncanny way of delivering funny while spreading philosophy worth hearing. Only two different aspects: Joe covered the wonders of life in general and Patrice covered the science of men in relationships. But each time either spoke, you could walk away with something enlightening.
I don't know if I can go quite that far, but he is the greatest one living by far (Bill Hicks RIP) and he is redefining the sitcom and creating a brand new genre.
seeing 1/3 of my holy trinity tonight at the improv. looking forward to copious amounts of ****ed-upness
Doug Stanhope seems to perform at the Improv pretty often, like several times a year. I should go see him. My favorite right now is Hannibal Buress. Saw him at the Improv a few months ago (right after he released Animal Furnace) and he was amazing. Upwards of 80% of his material was brand new.
Aziz, Seinfeld, Louie ck, Donald Glover & Anthony Jeselnik. But Jimmy Carr is probably my favorite...
hannibal and louis ck are at the top for me right now. Burr used to be up there too, but I wasn't impressed with his last show.

I don't understand how people think Louis CK is so funny. He is funny but I don't find him all THAT funny.
